Dear winter, It just isn’t working for me any more. Even the dog seems tired of the chewy water. Let’s break it off. –K, thanks. While all of you down South are seeing signs of spring, we are still running the woodstove and trying to keep warm. Here is one more recipe/technique that heats up …
I must always be prepared to serve toast and jam. If I have met you at a market or show recently I probably told you that we (Tall Dark Handsome & myself) have been living on bread and jam. You see we have been recipe testing a few fruit jams and TDH firmly believes that …
Grain salad is a perennial favorite of mine (see further proof here & here). Tweeked for winters’ offerings, this grain salad features nutty wild rice harvested in Canada, locally grown spinach, and my own butternut squash. When blended together, rustic grains and veggies make a nutrient packed satisfying dish that is hearty, not heavy. I …

With all the holiday cheer being passed around you are sure to catch a little more than rogue glitter. If in fact you find yourself under the weather this season, as I have, then comfort yourself with a warm mug and a spell by the fire. There are plenty of options to fill said mug …
This fudge recipe is something I came across years ago. I must have jotted down the ingredients and forgot about source or steps. Actually it might be one of those where I made up the fudge, thought it was awesome, and then tried to recall what I had just done to achieve the awesome results. …
This weekend I had a blast hanging out close to home at the Woodstock Inn. We met new friends, sold some jelly, and enjoyed a beer by the fire while the snow fell. Oh the reasons we love Vermont! I told so many people about how I have been using beer jelly in the crock …
